Editing Palm Tungsten (section)

==Details==

The [[Tungsten]] series was introduced in October 2002, created as a "prosumer" line priced at $199 to $300 to compete with the popular [[Sony Clie]] and [[Windows Mobile]] PDAs. The first device in the line is the Tungsten T, making it the first Palm PDA to be labeled with a letter rather than a number and to run Palm OS 5.

All of the Tungsten PDAs have a few attributes in common:
* 65,536 color [[LCD]] touch screen with a minimum 320 x 320 pixel resolution
* metal or metal-toned enclosure
* available flip cover to protect the screen
* [[Secure Digital card|Secure Digital (SD) card]] slot with [[Secure Digital card#SDIO|SDIO]] for memory cards and accessories
* no built-in camera

All models except the Tungsten C, W, and E have built-in [[Bluetooth]] wireless capabilities, while the Tungsten C and TX feature built-in [[Wi-Fi]] connectivity. Furthermore, by using the optional Palm Wi-Fi [[Secure_Digital#SDIO_cards]] Card accessory, the T3, T5, and E2 can also gain Wi-Fi connectivity.<ref>[http://www.palm.com/us/support/accessories/wifi_card.html Palm Wi-Fi Card Support]</ref><ref>[http://store.palm.com/sm-wi-fi-card-by-palmone--pi-1853744.html Palm Wi-Fi Card at the Palm Store]</ref>

With the exception of the Tungsten W, all Tungsten PDAs run [[Palm OS]] 5 "Garnet" on an [[ARM architecture|ARM]] processor and have non-user-replaceable [[lithium-ion]] batteries. Some users replaced battery packs with third-party units.{{Citation needed|date=April 2008}} The T3, for example, shipped with a 900&nbsp;mAh capacity battery but third-party 1100&nbsp;mAh or 1150&nbsp;mAh [[Lithium-ion polymer battery|LI-poly]] batteries of the same physical dimensions were available.{{Citation needed|date=April 2008}} Tungsten models used a five-way navigator pad, in the shape of a rounded rectangle, circle, or oval and had four buttons for built-in [[application software|applications]].

The [[Palm Universal Connector]] is used by the Tungsten T, Tungsten T2, Tungsten T3, Tungsten C, Tungsten W, for cradles and accessories, while the Tungsten E uses a mini-USB connection; the Tungsten T5, Tungsten E2 and TX used an [[Athena Connector]] also known as the Palm Multi-Connector.
